Anubis the Jackal

I, Sir, am a master of disguise. That's the spirit..... By the way what happened to your former (and might I add exquisitely attractive) avatar?

Hell yes, made an album regularly referred to as one of the greatest ever, even Hansard agrees!

Sky Saxon played a few nights in London last year. He was, to put it bluntly, utterly sh*t. Great support band, though their name escapes me for the minute. Roky is still going, mad as a barrel of Syd Barretts, somewhere in Texas. For those who don't know the awful tale of Mr Erickson and the Texas mental health authorities try here

Your Eyes Should Be Bloodshot Your eyes reflect: the bottom of a glass What's hidden behind your eyes: Jamesons. Strangely enough, my eyes are red today.

No we don't.

They are being re-launched soon! A mate was doing lighting for the advert and looked more like a fireman than the poncy model they had chosen, so is going to be the face of faggots in the UK!

There's been a very good version recently by Will Oldham, aka Bonnie Prince Billy Buy it here http://www.roughtrade.com/site/shop_detail...=sku&sku=260445" target="_blank">

Ah, the first person on Deathlist I actually knew (albeit vaguely.) It's such a terrible thought that his parents have outlived two sons.

A better obit just for you, Ronnie. not exactly impartial...by the way, welcome to new member Coatlicue. I don't think I know you, but your face seems familiar...

To the list of 'Fifth Beatles' can be added George Martin, their producer, Brian Epstein, their manager and Linda McCartney, their vegetarian ready-meal provider.

Billy Preston (ex Beatles and Rolling Stones Keyboard player) is very unwell. The vultures are circling according to this item (below the crap about the arsing DaVinci Code)

Ah, Brokeback Mountain. A moving film about men in chaps. Yes, indeed.. Nice pic. Bou - Where did you get that photo of me?

Er, you misunderstand. I was pointing out that since majority rule and democracy was finally established in South Africa, many of her beautiful, intelligent and enlightened countrymen have, to put no finer point on it, run away to The UK, Australia and New Zealand in order to, how can I put this politely, not be told what to do by 'The Blacks.' I recall the dreadful behaviour of ex-pat South Africans during a cricket match against Australia where the South African team were racially abused by white South African spectators... a contemporary report... Or rather, running on to a jet to London. Can't move for the charmless SA ignorami round here.

Parents Night? I thought you worked in an old peoples home for some reason...

Tookie Williams is due to be executed on the 13th of December. A founder member of the Crips street gang who has since renounced violence and been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize 5 times now relies on good ol' boy Arnie Schwarzenegger to grant him a reprieve, but would he still be decent DL material if a stay of execution were to be granted?

Just read James Ellroy's 'American Tabloid' and 'The Cold Six Thousand' back to back. Deeply unpleasant, but top quality pulp.

Dont beat yourself up - Ivor wouldnt care.(More royalties anyway) Really feel bad? Graffiti Tufnell Park tube station -then have a beer in the Boston Arms. I posted last night's lament above as a guest by mistake. Anyway, what did his graffiti have to say? This is intriguing. He'd affix stickers to advertisements, most of which were truly peculiar. "Funny Smell" was a favourite of mine. "Buy two of these and throw one away" was another.

Oh, I missed that! Send me a link, and I'll update the scoreboard accordingly. That'd be another 4 points. http://www.issue.demon.co.uk/poetry/cutler...rd/releases.htm He also taught African drumming http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,60-2072691,00.html

No, Sir. You are wrong. He was a cult figure to 3 generations as a writer, singer and performer. Put it this way, even my mum liked him. She would have never heard of, say, Ross Davidson.

I used to see him quite a bit, pottering around on his bike. It was when I noticed that the graffiti at Tufnell Park Underground station had lost its usual surreal genius that I figured he may have been on the way out. By the way, do I get the bonus point in the H'pool D'pool for his being a drummer (Privilege 1983 Rough Trade Records)

Ahoy-hoy. Apologies for absence and all that... I hear that Legendary Malian guitarist Ali Farka Toure, much loved by middle-class couples who wear macramed headgear and dance in an interpretive fashion at WOMAD is suffering from cancer. No details on google yet, but well worth a shout for '07...opinion anyone?

I thought it would have been, but I am / was a huge fan of Cutlers work, I had him in both of my deadpool teams and wantd to get the 'Death in a Scotch Sitting Room' pun up on the board.

Just in time for the new season I see.

There are 42 members whose name begins with P, given the amount of colds/flu etc around at this time of year, there's a pretty good chance one of them will be ill in the next 5 days! Couldn't you have picked a letter with less members like Q or Z? P with the facial hair and rough hands! That's me! Although the 'P' is silent.

What are all you people doing in my house???
